Zidane glared down at the body of the Latina woman, she was barely alive, he wanted to tear her to bits but she was rather useful and she had injected Scarlett with wolfsbane. He smiled coldly, placing his foot on her head. A small whimper left her lips and he pressed harder.
“Because of what you managed to do… I will let you live a little while longer.” He said. Using her as a stepping stool he stepped over her, sending an eruption of pain through her under his weight.
The wolves who had meant to chase Scarlett and that wretched Alpha were cowering as they knelt before him in a line. Despite the blood splattered across his suit and the deep scratches that Scarlett had left him with - Zidane looked calm and composed, but all the men there knew that a calm Zidane was dangerous.
“None of you were able to stop two kids… two fucking kids…” He hissed, his voice poisonous as he approached the wolves. Cade too knelt there despite his injuries.
“Alpha t
The middle-aged woman silently stepped out of the hospital room, it was past midnight and Scarlett had just had her full check-up, they were currently at Rafael’s pack hospital. Both Alphas turned to her, tension clear on both their faces, Elijah had told Rafael exactly who Scarlett was and how Zidane had marked her. “How is she? Can I see her?” Elijah said shooting to his feet. His hair was dishevelled from running his fingers through it repeatedly. “Alpha… please calm down.” The head doctor said giving him a stern look. “First of all, the wolfsbane must have been very minimum, there was barely any trace of it in her blood.” Elijah said nothing, he knew it was a lot, but he had a feeling it was to do with Scarlett’s special abilities. “To be honest, the speed she healed at is faster than even an Alpha.” She said, her eyes looked a little intrigued but she simply sighed. “So that’s good news, right?” Rafael said. “I’m afraid there’s ba
“You suffered just as much as them, didn’t you?” He asked softly. Scarlett looked at him, her eyes stinging. How could she tell him she suffered a lot more…? Where her mother would end up bedridden for days after a brutal beating, Scarlett was often subjected to weeks of punishment, remembering how she would lose consciousness but then forced awake and tortured again. She pushed the thought away. She had blocked it out, most of it lay locked up at the back of her mind only to return to haunt her at night. Her mother would think she has gone to some training camp and Scarlett would never deny it, sticking to what Zidane threatened her to say. Knowing he would hurt Indigo if she told her mother. Jessica would always check her for bruises but she would be perfectly blemish-free and it eased Jessica’s mind. Over time she began believing that Zidane did not hate Scarlett as much as he did her and Indigo. It was often the reason her mother would shout at her, thinkin
He lifted her from the bed, his lips never leaving hers. She locked her legs around his waist letting him carry her to the bathroom. Her core throbbing as pleasure filled her, a soft whimper escaped her lips when his hand ran over her ass under her hospital gown. He placed her on the tiled for, just long enough to tear the hospital gown off her. She smiled reaching for his shirt and pulled it up, he helped her take it off as he towered over her. “You’re fucking tiny, in more ways than one.” He said, his eyes appreciating her naked state - trying not to let his gaze linger on the pulsing mark on her neck. He pulled her close kissing her neck on the other side and letting her unzip his pants, her fingers grazing against his abdomen. “Perfect size to take your dick though.” She said biting her lip, running her hands over the bulge in his pants and feeling him harden under her touch. “Fuck sweetheart, didn’t you want to shower?” He groaned, his fingers di
“As much as you want to kill me right now… You should take a look at her.” Rafael said making Elijah turn his gaze on Scarlett, thinking Rafael was simply trying to distract him until he saw her face. His stomach twisted when he saw how pale she was. “Fuck Red, you ok?” He murmured cupping her face, she blinked as if in a daze her head was pounding at the thought. “No… How… I don’t get it.” She whispered, him marking her couldn't cut her tie to the pack so easily, yes it would form a link to him but… “He’s an Alpha. When an Alpha marks his- someone, their pack ties are broken by default… Don’t worry, we’ll get back home and dad can re-initiate you.” He said changing his sentence mid-way and running his fingers through her silky locks. “I’ll uh go get some hot drinks…” Rafael said leaving the room swiftly. Scarlett closed her eyes, resting her head in her hands, “I messed up, so bad.” She whispered. “What will mama think when she finds out…”
The journey home had been quiet but not too bad, Elijah was able to make her smile a few times but he could tell she was stressed and restless. She kept touching her neck too and although he asked her if the pain was getting worse, she’d simply shake her head. He did place a few kisses on her neck though whenever he got the chance and although she did not admit it, she appreciated his efforts. They had now pulled up outside the mansion, both looked at each other. “Be careful… they can’t know about us…” She whispered, Elijah frowned. “Scarlett I'm serious about you-” “We’re not doing this right now… Please, I don’t need any more negativity around here than I already get.” She said. Elijah sighed. “Fine.” He said, thinking for now… She adjusted her shawl, making sure her neck was fully covered. They'd just about got out of the car when the mansion doors were thrown open and Jessica ran out. She ran straight to Scarlett flinging her
The door slammed shut behind her and Elijah smirked, finding her comment rather hot. "Well, you got your answer.” He said cockily. “Do you think she can do this?!” Jackson snapped, venting his anger towards his son instead. “You’ve been a bad influence!” Elijah frowned. “Yeah, she can if you all had some faith.” He said. “It’s not like she’ll be alone, she has us, her pack behind her.” Jackson looked at Jessica, it was true they could not really hide any longer now that Zidane knew the truth… He would come for them and he feared for his wife and daughters. “Of course we are behind her, but it isn't safe.” Jackson said, his anger simmering down a notch. “I’ve seen the way he treats his pack. I get that you ran to protect your daughters and your own life… but as their Luna, you failed them. Scarlett is stepping up once again, doing what you couldn't do.” Elijah said icily, making Jessica flinch. It was something she felt guilty for until
Elijah had just about managed to put on some fresh clothes, trying his best not to break everything around him before he left his room slamming the door behind him, storming through the mansion with one aim in mind. His anger raging around him like a hurricane, festering within him, growing stronger with each passing second. How could his father do this? He walked past Indigo who had just returned from her short visit to Daniel’s, more curious to find out what was happening at home. She was about to say something but feeling his rage, she shrank away. Elijah didn’t even notice the tall girl, his mind set on one thing. Following his father’s scent until it led him to the kitchen, where he was holding Jessica, kissing her neck sensually. “So, the one fucking thing that was left of mom… you decided to get rid of that too!?” Elijah spat slamming his fist into the nearest wall, making the couple jump apart not even noticing him until he spoke. “Eli
Elijah and Scarlett exchanged looks, had she seen them? Scarlett’s heart was hammering and although Elijah looked emotionless, he was a little worried. This was not the way he wanted it to get out… Indigo looked between them, the scene she had walked in on was… It looked… She felt confused. It was not possible, maybe she had misunderstood? There was no way Elijah had been about to kiss Scarlett. That was simply wrong, gross and way too far-fetched to be true, right? But they had been close, too close. She did not miss the way Scarlett’s heart was racing or the way she had glanced at Elijah, who was doing an impressive job of masking his emotions. She now looked at Scarlett taking in her towel that hung dangerously low on her breasts, her eyebrow shooting up, “Scarlett although I know Elijah is our brother, and he has no interest in you, you’re having a nip slip.” She said, deciding to pretend she did not see their compromising position.

Winter had settled upon the town of Stratford-Upon-Avon, blanketing it and its surroundings in a deep layer of powdery snow. In the woods not far from the town, was the home of The Blood Moon Pack. A large house stood at the edge of the frozen river, covered in some Christmas lights and surrounded by trees bare of leaves. A small layer of snow clung to the branches. Elijah stood by the window, watching his twins sneak down the path. "They’re off, huh?" Scarlett said from where she was pouring some melted chocolate into a glass bowl. "Yep, and I'm sure we both know where they’re going." Elijah replied, an amused smirk on his lips. Like always, the twins loved to sneak away to their great-grandma Amelia’s. ‘They’re on their way to yours... And this time they seem to have packed, keep them for the night.’ Elijah mind-linked his great aunt. ‘I already knew that. Let me put on some tea…’ ‘Aren’t they too young for tea?’ Elij
5 YEARS LATER “Oh, come on Elijah! You have to wear it!” Rafael said holding up the shiny pink unicorn party hat. Elijah glared at his friend. “I wouldn’t be caught dead in that.” He said. “It’s Raihana’s birthday. Come on, she’s going to cry if you don’t.” Elijah raised an eyebrow. “She’s 2. I don’t think she’ll even care.” From across the garden, Scarlett and Maria exchanged looks. “Them two argue too much…” Maria said as she arranged the sandwich platter and set it down. “Bromance at its finest!” Indigo called as she walked out from the Villa. It was Rafael’s second child’s birthday and he had rented a villa for some of their friends. “Look she’s not wearing one…” Elijah said, giving Rafael a look as he pointed at Indigo. “Ok fine… You and Alejandro are such party poopers…” He grumbled glancing at his brother, who to be honest he was shocked he had even come for the party. The rest had come the day be
“Do you Alpha Scarlett vow to treat The Blood Moon Pack as your home and family? To stand by my side as my Luna as well as Co-Alpha?” He said, taking everyone by surprise at his change of the traditional vow. Scarlett smiled softly. “I do.” She said. Elijah sliced his own hand, before taking hers and gently slicing it. They shook hands, their blood mingling and Scarlett was surprised to feel a shift in power, making Elijah smirk. She was after all an Alpha. The pack link was back and she could feel the link between all her members. This was what it felt like to be complete. “I give you your new Alpha and Luna!” Jackson said. “You mean Alphas!” Aaron shouted making every laugh and cheer. “Yes Alpha’s” Jackson corrected, smiling slightly as the couple hugged. “Welcome back Red.” Elijah murmured in her ear making her smile. He kissed her before stepping back and turned to the pack. “I would like to appoint Aaron Nicholson as my Beta and Michael B
Several weeks had passed since then and the pack was thriving. The funerals had been hard,but every pack member was honoured. Fiona’s parents had been excluded from the pack. Elijah still did not forgive Meredith for her attack on Scarlett back at that meeting and didn’t need any more toxic people with a motive for revenge around. The only odd occurrence was the strange murder of Alpha Daniel. He had been found dead in his bedroom. There had been no sign of a break in or even any scent and so no fingers had pointed at anyone. Of course, there was a certain name that crossed both Elijah and Scarlett’s minds but neither spoke of it. Alpha Daniel was the reason all the allied packs lost members and no one really cared about his death. His beta was to take charge of the pack until Daniel’s 12-year-old son was ready to take over at 18. The matter was soon forgotten as everyone moved on from the events that had occurred. Half of the old Desert Storm Pack had been moved to
Elijah entered the cells after telling Scarlett he’d be back late tonight. He didn’t want to tell her exactly where he was or what he was going to do, but Fiona had done enough damage and he was the one who would deal with her. He walked to the end of the hall, to the end cell where he could hear her crying. His anger emanating from him. The two warriors at the doors lowered their heads to him. One of them handed him a pair of gloves and he put them on before taking the silver chain whip. “Open it.” He said, seeing Fiona wearing plain white clothing - her arms hooked up, her back facing him. “Alpha! Alpha you’re here to save me, aren't you?!” She said, her voice shaky. Elijah walked around until he stood in front of her. “You really are delusional.” He said coldly. “I regret ever having anything to do with you.” Her eyes widened in shock, her lip quivering. “You don’t mean that.” She whispered. Elijah didn’t bother correcting her, she was too
They had arrived home late at night and although they didn’t get much rest after discussing things with Jackson, they had squeezed a few hours in. Elijah had called a mass pack meeting for the following morning. There were some people exempt from it, mostly those in mourning. Although Jackson wanted to know the reason, he refused to say anything. They now were sat around the kitchen table; the sun was barely up in the sky. Being back made everyone think of Liam, right about now he would be training the first group of warriors. Scarlett wanted to visit his parents as well, which she would do whilst Elijah had his meeting. The pain of his loss was hitting her harder than she had thought it would. “I’m going to go shower, I’ll be right back.” Scarlett said standing up, she bent down cupping Elijah’s jaw as she kissed him before leaving their parents and Elijah alone. “Dad as you know, we need someone to overlook things with The Desert Storm Pack and we can all a
The following day came before Scarlett was even prepared for it. Breakfast was over and everyone was going to gather at the training grounds. Scarlett and Elijah were the first ones there. Just being here left a bitter taste in her mouth, the memories were hard to swallow and she couldn't wait to get out of here. “Relax kitten.” Elijah said rubbing her arms, sensing her emotions. She closed her eyes and sighed. “They will be here soon and I don’t know if they’ll be willing…” “Willing for what? Care to share your plan?” He asked quietly. Scarlett opened her eyes realising he hadn't once asked her what she wanted to do or pressurised her into combining packs. In her emotional state last night, she had forgotten to even discuss it with him. “Sorry, things have been crazy. I forgot to even ask you.” She said leaning into his chest. “I want to ask the pack to combine with yours… If that’s ok of course. Zidane had businesses that are mine and Indigos now. I
Night had fallen but the Alpha mansion of The Desert Storm Pack was ablaze with lights. They had moved everyone out of the appalling packhouse, most of who were omegas. Placing the severely injured into the pack hospital and those who had any health care knowledge were taking care of them. A few doctors from Rafael’s pack and another neighbouring pack had come to assist. The neighbouring pack was indeed happy to hear Zidane was gone, they only came to assist after hearing what had happened and to see who the new Alpha was. They had gathered their dead and Rafael had bid them farewell, taking his men and the bodies of his lost pack members with him, knowing their mates and families were waiting for them. Scarlett had apologised once more for the loss he had suffered, knowing she would never be able to face their mates who had to go through so much. She now wrapped her arms around herself, even in the soft fleecy top she wore it was chilly. She walked over to the table
